Abstract

The present study showed that glomerulopressin decreased ovarian blood flow in normal dogs and that this effect could be inhibited by treatment with indomethacin.

In addition diabetic dogs had a high plasma level of glomerulopressin and a low ovarian blood flow that was shown to increase after treatment with indomethacin. This suggests that the low ovarian blood flow in diabetis might be due to a prostaglandin synthesizing effect of glomerulopressin.
